Could you build this?

No WOB is physical hardware and naval architecture—a physical modular micro-catamaran watercraft requiring industrial design, structural engineering, and manufacturing. Software AI assistants cannot vibe-code physical watercraft or maritime physical testing.

What it would actually take: Building a functional micro-catamaran requires hydrodynamics, marine naval architecture, CAD modeling in Rhino/SolidWorks, composite material engineering (e.g., roto-molded polyethylene or fiberglass), and physical prototype testing for buoyancy and safety. Production requires industrial tooling, molds, physical assembly jigs, and maritime regulatory compliance.
